The US is not content with supporting direct terrorism against Iran by sponsoring the Al Qaedi-linked Jundullah (Army of God), it is now adding a presidential approved "Non-lethal" program of criminal covert actions against Iran:

I heard on the news this morning that the largest US military "exercise" since the invasion and bombing of Iraq is taking place in the Persian Gulf right now.
